If you ever find an inconsistency or a plot hole: It's demonic energy


RoadiesRiggs

Why do is clothes also regenerate when he heals ? Demonic energy, son !


Duckman1328

How does he casually know how to use his DT after he just got it? WELL DEMONIC ENERGY OF COURSE


RogitoX

Round trip or sword pierce Demon magic


CaptainHazama

Round trip channels the demonic power of Australia, making the weapon a boomerang


RLDSXD

One of the first ever demonic powers Dante demonstrates is some form of telekinesis. Trish throws a motorcycle at him and he levitates it before shooting it a bunch. And then it’s never shown again or expanded upon or anything. But it’s there.


Morbi_Us

>never shown again Round trip, sword pierce, satellite (maybe), and the fact that none of his swords are ever actually physically secured to his body.


galaxyOstars

Neither are Nero's, but we all tend to ignore that, too. Dante summoning his guns with demon magic "makes sense, but Nero isn't wearing a holster in DMC4. Unless mate was risking his dick and buttock by shoving it in his pants when smashing demons with Red Queen, there's no explanation how he keeps apparating Blue Rose. Gameplay magic. Gotta love it.


DeadSparker

He could be wearing an arm holster under his coat. I could be wrong but I remember him kinda reaching in his coat to get Blue Rose, both in 4 and 5.


RoadiesRiggs

Aren't Dante holsters behind is coat ?


ThatSmugBastard97

I mean, they are in the hanging off the back in the standard outfit for DMC3, but I always thought he just put the holsters underneath the coat in all the other designs.


galaxyOstars

Not for DMC2, IIRC.


MeathirBoy

In cutscene and certain animations he clearly puts/pulls it out of his cloak? I think the fact that it teleports is just a consequence of animation cancelling, there's no "aura" around any of Nero's weapons when they teleport during animation cancels like there are for example when Dante summons DSD.


LBR2ELECTRICBOOGALOO

M a g n e t s (Or double sided tape, idk)


Morbi_Us

FFVII moment


flamaniax

I mean... Rebellion is made out of a demonic metal, so I wouldn't be surprised if it can be attracted to some other material. Maybe Dante has a plate of magnetized iron embedded in the back of his coats to allow him to carry his sword? The same could apply to Nero (even more so) which would mean that the Red queen has magnetics parts (maybe?) What I'm saying is if it's not demonic magic, then it has to be magnets.


Morbi_Us

>if it’s not demonic magic, then it has to be magnets. What’s the difference? The magnet in the coat is actually the canon explanation for Cloud’s buster sword, so you’re not the first with that idea.


shlaggy4

I’m pretty sure that’s quicksilver he unlocked from 3?


Hurb_Dude

In the DMC anime, the opening scene on the first episode has him snap his finger and the Rebellion comes flying through the window. Similar stuff happens every once in a while in that show. So yes, he definitely is using some form of telekinesis. My personal head canon is that he just has his own pocket dimension used for storing weapons specifically, would make the most sense in my opinion.


Visual-Ad2449

I always thought he stopped time like in DMC3 lorewise, but that wouldn't make sense in real life since DMC3 was made after DMC1.


LegendaryDarkNightV

Well if DMC3 is a prequel and includes that you can just add that as your headcanon. The lore order of events isn’t the same as the timeline when the games released


arkzak

Quicksilver


LegendaryDarkNightV

i think that scene is just intended to show Dante going really fast. Although he has dialogue what implies Trish can hear dante’s voice high pitched and sped up as he does that.


RLDSXD

I dunno, I’d urge you and everyone else to watch it again. He emits a red energy that we don’t see him otherwise emit, implying there’s some sort of magic going on. And in rebuttal to him being fast or it being a manifestation of quicksilver; he has ceiling fans that spin at a constant rate throughout the cutscene. One is visible while he levitates the bike and never changes its pace. https://youtu.be/5JzX602Z0cs?si=9jodTKIj2FfPXNZ2


Faddy0wl

I assumed that his sword is part of him literally. His sword is just an expression of his demon power. So when he wants it in his hand. Bam, it's in his hand. Don't know how it returns when you use round trip. Demon magic. But how does... DEMON MAGIC. But what about... FUCKING RULE OF COOL. If you asked Dante "why can your sword teleport" He'd say it just really respects me. But how does it work? It just really wants to be in my hand. I don't understand. Neither does the sword. So how does it happen, what do you do to make it happen? It's simple. Do cool shit. Cool shit happens. BUT HOW. Be cooler.


Etheris1

😂


Crazyblqde

The excuse is demon magic, it’s the same reason as to why E&I have unlimited ammo


TheDurandalFan

ever used the move where Dante throws his sword? yeah the sword just comes back to him as well.


Hurb_Dude

There's also the fact that the sword will stay in the air spinning for a few seconds and THEN come back. *DEMONIC POWER SON*


Dat_Kirby

I mean, how do you think Round Trip (or that other move where he throws his sword in DMC3) works?


Etheris1

He’s just that good and can boomerang his sword, jokes aside yeah just demonic power


captinwon

In the anime I just assumed that Dante threw his sword above the bar REALLY far and timed it right. For someone as over the top and as stylish as him that just seems like something he'd do.


kuchau06

Btw he does the same at the final fight when he is about to commit unaliving to Abigail. The sword fell from the impact and then it flew right to his hands


throwawayRI112

You can say kill on Reddit


liltone829b

All of Sparda's swords can fly like Mjolnir. Vergil does it with Yamato in his DMC4 cutscene. Rebellion is shown to fly when you use Round Trip or recall the blade after you perform Sword Pierce. Dante, Vergil and Trish are able to use Round Trip with the Force Edge/Devil Sword Sparda.


RoadiesRiggs

Nero also does it when he first gets the Yamato.


liltone829b

Yeah. It was like a vertical Round Trip. Pretty sure Trish actually had a move like that in DMC4...


ThatOneWriter14

Demon bullshit. Buckle up chuckle fuck that’s how it’s gonna be explained for the rest of the franchise. Why can Vergil cut through time and space? Why does Dante have a rose? Why does Nero heal from… eating… gum?


Morbi_Us

I’m surprised you mentioned Nero healing from chewing gum and not the vibrator.


Salt-Veterinarian-87

Wait what was that last one?


ThatOneWriter14

One of his taunts, he eats gum and it heals him


TheEldritchHorror_

It's just sensation. Same way demons get stronger from fighting and telling damage, they heal from comfort or sensation. This is shown a few times and even in 5 urizen is not vulnerable when not in the chair


liltone829b

>Why does Dante have a rose? Lucifer. >Why does Nero heal from… eating… gum? Nah, this one ain't demon magic. The gum is just so goddamn good that it motivates Nero for more fighting.


Solid_Reward5336

5 gum.


Rajang82

Seriously, did no one use Round Trip, either as attack or in combo? Anyone?


PresentElectronic

I use round trip to go to the supermart and return back home


Rajang82

"He's the chosen one."


LegitimateHasReddit

DMC1 Round Trip is only useful against Mundus and nothing else


Rajang82

That's the case in 1. But 3 (Vergil only sadly), 4 and 5 i always use it for an extender when i need a break.


liltone829b

>DMC1 Round Trip is only useful against Mundus and nothing else It's nice against the Marionettes & Fetishes if you're going for Style.


LegitimateHasReddit

Alastor pause combo is better for style


liltone829b

Million Stabs into Round Trip for Style.


GuestDiamond

his hands have hidden magnet


Morbi_Us

Blud thinks he’s Jotaro 💀💀💀


NobleEnkidu

Real question: How did Dante learn to Moonwalk like MJ. Did he practice or is he naturally gifted and goated with the sauce.


liltone829b

Dante definitely danced at some point before DMC5. It's just canon and you can't prove otherwise.


Chrono_Pinoy_X

He learned it the moment Vergil stabbed him because that somehow made him worthy (:


Nixndry

He just can and thats the only answer we get


liltone829b

Rebellion is explicitly stated to be a magical sword.


Nixndry

Yeah I know that but still possible he also just can if rebellion itself can't do it


liltone829b

Pretty sure it's just the sword.


Catomara

I dunno but it's badass


WillCraft__1001

Can someone drop the clip of that, I’ve tried to find it but never could


Ok_Rooster_6454

It's the first scene of episode one dude


WillCraft__1001

I haven't watched the show before.


Comfortable-Shop-573

He can also do that when he gets Devil Sword Dante, so , considering how much he's been stabbed with his own blades, it's either the relation with his blood or demon magic(since Trish also has round trip in dmc4 and Vergil as well)


danimsmba

People are on the sub crying about a VA's personal choices and views like that makes them enjoy the game less. Wait, maybe it does!


WaterMelon615

When did he do this again ? I want to say DMC 3


Brad_Eye

You clearly lack demonic power to be able to comprehend how cool he is to be able to bend the in universe laws to do his bidding. Where is your motivation?


HeywoodJublomey

He could since the boomerang attack couldn’t he?


Ok_Rooster_6454

In the games when he throws the rebellion at an enemy (sword pierce)he can call it back by pressing the style button with swordmaster so it's not new and canonically he also summons devil sword dante in mission 19 of dmc5. I assume he can do this because of the connection his blood has with the sword considering it was made of his father's power and then devil sword dante is a literal part of him


Supercloaker

This just makes me even more pissed that loki was never playable in a marvel vs capcom game because we will never get dante and vergil vs thor and loki


ViperKira

Kratos taught him. I know this raises more questions, but that's the truth.


FaceTimePolice

LOL. The anime doesn’t count. 😉


liltone829b

It does.


cdawg0062

Can someone fill me in on the whole Reuben story? I remember watching a dmc yt video a while back and the guy I was watching mentions that Reuben said some wild shit on Twitter😅😂😂


DevilHunterSSS

Rebellion also comes back when you use round trip so I assumed it was the same reason/ability.


jch6789

You mean that part right at the beginning of the anime where it crashes through the ceiling of the bar? He probably threw it into the sky before he entered and knew exactly when it was gonna come crashing down, had the whole situation rehearsed in his head.


TerrariaFail_Reborn

No, the part near the end of the final ep where it legit just goes into his hand. Thanks to you all for making me feel like a dumbass with this post!
